    Can't have or they wouldn't be able to lay via ship.

    Unless you mean tunnel as in hard protective cable coating to stop the fibre optic part from being crushed. But if it was that hard it wouldn't bend on the reel the ships use.

    So I'm still not buying this really happens. It's all a big con and they use satellites instead. The cable companies charge for a fake cable and just buy some bandwidth on a satellite. Nice scam.
